Qin Ziteng replied, "Junior Sister, don't worry. That person was a madman. No one would believe what he said. I know you. You're not the kind of person who can't resist good-looking people like he described."
“Yes, our junior sister doesn’t like good-looking people,” Ye Tian chimed in.
Yun Qin: ...That's not true.
"Oh, you don't like good-looking people? Do you have a special taste and prefer ugly people?" Rong Zi suddenly poked his head out of the window of the next private room and asked curiously.
Yun Qin's face darkened. "You're actually in the private room next to ours?"
Rong Zi grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds, leaned against the windowsill, and cracked them open with a smile.
"This isn't your home. Is it strange that I'm next door?"
Qin Ziteng was so angry he wanted to stab her to death with a sword. "You wait, after the auction ends, it will be your death day!"
If he had known that Rong Zi wasn't stupid and would be so annoying, he should have had her killed back when she was still in the Qin family.
Rong Zi crossed her legs and shook her little feet, deliberately provoking him.
"If you're a man, don't wait until the party's over, just do it now!"
"Oh, I almost forgot, you're too weak to even try."
Qin Ziteng's anger surged as he looked at her irritating expression.
He slammed his hand on the table and stood up, “You…”
Just then, a woman's soft and gentle voice came from the auction stage on the first floor.
"Welcome, distinguished guests. The auction is now officially open. This is the first item for tonight: a Crimson Flame Fruit. Starting bid: 50,000 high-grade spirit stones."
As soon as the first item was brought out, the people in the auction room instantly erupted in excitement.
"Holy crap, it's a Crimson Flame Fruit!"
"This Crimson Flame Fruit is not only rare, but it also only ripens once every sixty years. It is an invaluable treasure!"
"Of course! Yun Qin, the junior sister of Yao Huo Sect, and that Rong Zi have been making a big fuss lately, all because of a Crimson Flame Fruit. I didn't expect to find one at this auction house."
Yun Qin, on the second floor, stood up in shock. "How could this be..."
How could there possibly be Crimson Flame Fruit here?
Ever since Rong Zi ruined the Crimson Flame Fruit in the Monster Forest, Yun Qin has been searching everywhere for another one, but all her efforts have been in vain.
Left with no other choice, she had to endure the nausea and eat the leftover fruit that Rong Zi had finished eating. She also spent a lot of money to buy a lot of spiritual herbs before she could barely succeed in establishing her foundation.
If she had known there were Crimson Flame Fruits here, why would she have...?
Thinking of this, Yun Qin's face turned green.
Rong Zi observed Yun Qin's expression, slowly cracking open the sunflower seeds in her mouth, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons with a smile.
The best time to eat the Crimson Flame Fruit is within three months of it being picked from the tree.
She and Gu Xiaochui can only eat one a month now.
The best way to deal with the remaining Crimson Flame Fruit is to sell it at the auction house.
It can earn you spirit stones and also annoy someone.
That was so much fun!
The beautiful auctioneer introduced, "What the Crimson Flame Fruit means to cultivators with fire spirit roots, especially those who are at a bottleneck, I don't need to say more. Fifty thousand high-grade spirit stones, is anyone willing to bid?"
Immediately, someone shouted, "Fifty-one thousand high-grade spirit stones!"
"Fifty-two thousand high-grade spirit stones!"
"Fifty-five thousand high-grade spirit stones!"
"Sixty thousand!"
The auctioneer was right; no cultivator with a fire spirit root could resist the temptation of the Crimson Flame Fruit.
As Rong Zi listened to the ever-increasing numbers, his smile stretched almost to the back of his ears.
Hehe, it's all money!
Cultivation is the most expensive thing for cultivators.
Moreover, she now has another apprentice, so she has more people to support, and the demand for spirit stones will definitely increase in the future.
I need to save up more money...
Yun Qin looked at the Crimson Flame Fruit on the auction stage, her hand on the armrest of the chair clenching tighter and tighter.
If she could obtain this Crimson Flame Fruit, it would definitely be of great benefit to her cultivation.
The spiritual herbs she used during her foundation-building stage were nothing compared to the Crimson Flame Fruit.
Qin Ziteng glanced at Yun Qin and asked considerately, "Junior Sister, do you want it? If you do, your senior brother will definitely help you get it."
Before entering the Yao Huo Sect, Yun Qin was just an outer disciple of the Qin family and didn't have many spirit stones.
Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Yun Qin's eyes.
But she frowned slightly, "However, my senior brother has already spent a lot of spirit stones to help me buy spiritual medicine to help me establish my foundation."
Seeing how considerate Yun Qin was of him, Qin Ziteng's heart soared, and his eyes were filled with tenderness as he looked at Yun Qin.
The junior sister still has feelings for him.
Look, she doesn't even want him to spend money on her.
Qin Ziteng patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, your senior brother has plenty of spirit stones. Spending a little spirit stones on you is nothing to me."
The price has already risen to almost 70,000 high-grade spirit stones.
Qin Ziteng raised his auction paddle and declared domineeringly, "One hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones, I want this Crimson Flame Fruit."
As his voice fell, a series of gasps of astonishment rose from below.
One hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones...
Many people began to whisper among themselves, "As expected of a direct disciple of the Yao Huo Sect, they are indeed very wealthy."
"You probably don't know this, but Qin Ziteng is the eldest son of the Qin family, one of the seven great cultivation families. His status is extraordinary. These spirit stones are probably just a drop in the ocean for him."
